Drive over the pass


View Larger Map

Last weekend as I drove Caden to Klamath Falls I was struck by the changes in ground cover. I know of no other region in this country where you can see such rapid change from fertile river valley, up into a coniferous forest and over the pass and into high desert. Compressed into a few hours drive, from the Pacific coast to the high desert, while from the other direction you have to traverse half the continent to see the same range.
